What Does Jessie J's I Want Love Really Mean?

Posted by Erma Hippe on Saturday, June 1, 2024

"I Want Love" is the lead single from Jessie J's upcoming fifth studio album, according to Genius, and we see why. This track is declarative not only in lyrics but in its tone and mood. It sets the stage for an album that crosses the thresholds of various emotions and welcomes listeners to go through the motions of love, from heartbreak all the way to bliss. She doesn't want any of the trouble that comes with love — just love, which she's going to deliver through her powerful vocals.

According to Capital FM, Jessie J has found love in the form of dancer Max Pham Nguyen. The singer dated "Magic Mike" actor Channing Tatum in stints between 2018 and 2020 but is now settled down with Nguyen, and the two seem incredibly happy. Because there has been nearly a handful of years since her last album, "R.O.S.E.," Jessie J has likely imbued this upcoming album with all of her feelings from her relationships with Tatum and Nguyen. We see this immediately in "I Want Love," which we could see as a transition in her life from moving on from Tatum and falling for Nguyen. This is what "I Want Love" is all about: finding love that, yes, requires work, but which isn't harmful to you.
